It would seem that Super Mario Galaxy is living up to the hype. 1up.com recently reviewed it giving it 9.5/10.
In short, Galaxy is one of the most impressive, engrossing games in recent memory — and quite the contrast to the rest of this year’s triple-A gaming crop, which tends toward the dark, the M-rated, and the first-person perspective. Gaming may be growing up (per se), but gamers will always appreciate beautifully polished gameplay and inventive design…even if it’s sugarcoated with squeaky baby stars and a goofy cartoon of a hero. Galaxy proves that Mario matters just as much today as he did 25 years ago, and that makes him one of a kind in this medium. But don’t play Galaxy simply because Mario is the timeless godfather of gaming. No, play Galaxy because it’s fantastic.
Super Mario Galaxy is due for release on the November 16, 2007 and is available from Amazon for £32.99

Very fun, much better than Sunshine. Very linear though. Limiting in a way that 64 and Super Mario World weren’t.
